For there is clearly interest.

People who aren't already in the other game can take precedent here.

Thanks, EFHW!

Eevee · « **Reply #6 on:** December 16, 2019, 03:51:26 pm »

Do you peeps want to play 2v2 (I'd sit out), or wait for one more and play 3v3?

A Drowned Kernel · « **Reply #7 on:** December 16, 2019, 03:53:18 pm »

No preference here

WestCoastDidds · « **Reply #8 on:** December 16, 2019, 04:03:44 pm »

We can wait, Eevee.

Is there anyone else who we think might be interested? We could message them.

scolapasta · « **Reply #9 on:** December 16, 2019, 04:19:05 pm »

I'd play here too, but I'd definitely defer if you find someone else (since I'm already in Codenames VIII).

Eevee · « **Reply #10 on:** December 16, 2019, 04:31:43 pm »

Let's start the game up!

The blue team is Eevee, Awaclus and ADK, and EFHW, scola and Didds are team red.

What's the syntax for the forum dice app? (for randomizing the first spymasters)

So ADK and Didds. The link to the randomizer is in the first post, either of you needs to start the game.

LEECH: 3

Talk is in regular font and guesses are in bold?

Awaclus · « **Reply #18 on:** December 17, 2019, 05:20:20 am »

Is there a post somewhere that explains the etiquette on f.ds? I have played Codenames like twice so I know the basic idea, but I don't necessarily remember what kind of stuff was considered acceptable or whether there's variations depending on the group.

We are still kind of in the process of figuring it out. In VIII we've done open discussion between the guessers and locked in answers in bold. You can read a sample of that game to get an idea if it helps.

For leech tick, water, disease*, slug/scorpion come to mind. Tick for also being a parasitic creature that sucks blood, water for being the general habitat for leeches, disease for cupping therapy used to cure whatever in times of the yore, slug/scorpion for being animals like leech is. Feel free to lock in whatever you feel is strongest when you log on unless you feel we need to discuss more.

*Desease is probably a misspelling of disease?

Awaclus · « **Reply #20 on:** December 17, 2019, 06:30:22 am »

TICK

I also think Alien (as in the film) and Egypt (because of the biblical plagues) are potential ones if we think of leech as a metaphor for parasite in general. Disease and water are also legit guesses. I'm less convinced about slug and scorpion because there are other animals there, too.

WestCoastDidds · « **Reply #21 on:** December 17, 2019, 08:11:01 am »

Tick is Blue!

Eevee · « **Reply #22 on:** December 17, 2019, 10:11:28 am »

What do you think our second (and third) guess should be?

Disease maybe? I have no idea which one out of water, alien and Egypt makes the most sense for the third guess.

Eevee · « **Reply #24 on:** December 17, 2019, 10:50:56 am »

a bit worried since it's not a direct link, but let's try disease
